Well, I thought about taking it in an inch and a half off the end but it was unanimously voted against by the pre-release crowd. They also wanted the rivets. I understand it isn't for everyone and I may potentially build another version later but for now this is what we are running, I have other parts I am working to finish and push out. :)

Looks great! OEM diffuser is a no go by the looks of it...

PM price please :thumbsup:

Yes, it is a completely functional replacement to the non-functioning OEM lip and all the other lips on the aftermarket.

Unlike other diffusers available, this one has worked with every exhaust I've put it on.

Price coming soon!

Anyone got a wind tunnel to do some testing in? :)
I have 4 within a 30 minute drive, anyone have the cash to buy some time? Haha

Gunman, I haven't been in NC for almost a decade, I might enlist your "local knowledge" for a discount on one. :)

Just to add a little to the thread, I have this rear diffuser. I painted it gold (to match my wheels) and I get compliments all the time when driving and when getting out of my car. See my build thread for pictures. Even though the cutout is designed for the Perrin exhaust, it fits the Nameless offset as well. I also think I've had a very slight increase in MPG.

It would not work with that piece. You would have to heavily modify that item or take it off.
Ahh, I can definitely see that now that I've seen the installed pics. That's a bit more agressive than I'd be looking for with a street car anyhow.

wonder if it can fit on rocket bunny diffuser...

Looks tacky and ugly. Thumbs down.

Sorry you feel that way! The dimensions are posted, maybe you could build an alternative? There aren't many available and having other options would be great.

I'd like to see! That's my next step is seeing what aftermarket bumpers that it works with.
